We derive upper bounds on the quantum Fisher information in interferometry with $N$ subsystems, e.g. two-level atoms or Gaussian modes, in the presence of arbitrarily correlated Gaussian dephasing including independent and collective…

Local information objectivity, that local, independent observers can infer the same information about a model upon exchange of independently acquired experimental data, is fundamental to science. It is mathematically encoded via Cencov's…

In this paper, we consider a parametric hidden Markov model where the hidden state space is non necessarily finite. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility of the limiting Fisher information matrix.

A weak value is an effective description of the influence of a pre and post-selected 'principal' system on another 'meter' system to which it is weakly coupled. Weak values can describe anomalously large deflections of the meter, and…

The variance and the entropy power of a continuous random variable are bounded from below by the reciprocal of its Fisher information through the Cram\'{e}r-Rao bound and the Stam's inequality respectively. In this note, we introduce the…

The Fisher information of a quantum observable is shown to be proportional to both (i) the difference of a quantum and a classical variance, thus providing a measure of nonclassicality; and (ii) the rate of entropy increase under Gaussian…
